LONDON, Sept 6.-Berlin kilograms put the
present attitude OF Turkey with reference TO bui-
garia in new light The German Foreign ohce
seems not to believe that Turkey VIII really sehu
General Ernroth as Special Commissioner to bui-
Oaria. All the Porte has done is to notify to
Germany that it is inclined to send him IL all the
Powers approve. But no request for approvai hSs
vet reached the other Powers. Bismarck has ex-
pressed no opinion, and intends to express none
unless formally asked by Turkey. The Sultan
is now said TO hesitate because he has been told
that to dispatch Commissioner without troops
woull be ridiculous, and troops he Is resolved
not to send. Meantime Stambouloff is strength
ening his Government. Austria is reported to
have refused its assent to the Ernroth scheme.
Bismarck launches an article in The North
German Gazette" remarkable for its attempt to
m, ow on France the rcsponsib bity for Ferdinands
enterprise and the violation of the Berlin Treaty
involved in it, but there is nothing in this article
which implies sanction to any scheme for getting
rid of Ferdinand by force.

triumphant The Government stopped the hold

The trades seem ready TO move in another
question, apparently outside their sphere, that OF
land tenure. They hold that rural labor is
driven into the towns by the existing system
Agriculturists thus become conn et'tors with art
sans. tie price OF labor is lowered, and the entre
working class suffers. They are bent on land
scfum for this reason. At present they have their
hands full with more pressing questions. De-
preston continues, wages are low, work is scarce
and nobody is ready with remedy for any OF
these evils.

over the wasted session, the end OF which appears
now fairly in sight. TIE Irish themselves seem
